Hello,
I have freeRadius version 1.0.5 on gentoo Linux (r3).
I am using three Linksys WAP54G access points.
I've managed to roam seamlessly both with Broadcom and Intel wireless laptops. However, this is true for open APs or with WEP encryption. If I use WPA-Enterprise with a Radius server, there's a long delay when switching between APs (10 seconds).
The test environment is as follows:
freeRadius.org Gentoo Linux server --- 3 Linksys WAP54G APs configured with WPA-Enterprise w/Radius --- 1 roaming laptop
The delay seems to be due to re-authentication with the freeRadius server and that seems to be "expensive".
Is there a way of "caching" or "pre-authenticating" or "propagating authentication between APs"?
Has anyone found a solution to this roaming problem in case one uses WPA-Enterprise/Radius?
Regards,
Vieri
